I too am Canadian:lol:, and have learned the hard and expensive way to NEVER use UPS when ordering something from the US. I always use USPS (United States Postal Services).

UPS has manages somehow to make themselves a:thumbdown: broker for the border and can charge you whatever :evil: they want :evil: when sending stuff across the border, PLUS :evil: their fee. Now they NEVER tell you this up front, but he :twisted: cost can be astronomical!
